Horror movies that you wanted sequels to

What stand alone movies or franchises ( NOES, Friday the 13th, etc. ) did you want to see one or more sequels to?

Mine would have to be the Friday The 13th movies and the Phantasm movies. Jason was an entertaining character to watch and even though he has had 12 movies I still think there should be more. Phantasm because the fourth one ends on a cliffhanger.

Wasn't there a 28 Months in talks at some point? I wouldn't mind seeing another film come out of that series.

Even though you have to take it with a grain of salt, from the Wikipedia page for 28 Weeks Later: In October 2010, when Alex Garland was asked what was happening with 28 Months Later, he declared: "I'll answer that completely honestly. When we made 28 Days Later, the rights were frozen between a group of people who are no longer talking to each other. And so, the film is never going to happen unless those people start talking to each other again. There is no script as far as I'm aware"

That's a shame, I didn't even know about this situation. Maybe I shouldn't believe everything IMDB tells me lol.

Rosemary's Baby - I know there was a terrible made-for-TV sequel, but Ira Levin wrote a sequel novel in the 90's entitled Son of Rosemary that was quite a great read aside from the third act. I firmly believe that if Polanski picked this up around the time he did The Ninth Gate, he could've enlisted Mia Farrow and made a great sequel. He'd have to rework the third act big time, though.
